Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac, Paris – acquired directly from the artist in 2008 Jason Martins works subscribe to the Western tradition of gestural painting. First of all, Martin applies saturated, monochrome colour on mirroring aluminium, stainless steel or translucent plexiglass panes. Then, the artist pulls large brushes, which he specifically creates for each painting according to the width of the canvas, across the whole pastose surface, without interrupting the movement. Depending on the chosen background, application of colour and brush, very different wave-like movements emerge, in which the brush stroke itself creates the motif. The brush stroke is at times smooth, at other times abrupt. The material is partly subtracted, letting the support shine through in some areas between the grooves created by the brush strokes and comb-like striations. The three-dimensional effect of the combed structure is highlighted by means of shimmering effects combined with light-deflecting edges and crevices, giving the viewer a thoroughly sensual impression of materiality.
